Praline Ice Cream Sauce

I found this recipe years ago (in a magazine but can’t remember which one) and I must warn you it is so yummy and addictive! The best part about this sauce is that it is made in the microwave, so it is fast and simple and makes a great homemade gift.

In another microwave safe bowl (I use a glass batter bowl because it has a lip for pouring) place remaining butter and heat until melted. Whisk in brown sugar, flour, and light corn syrup until blended. Cook on high 6-8 minutes, stirring twice, until the sugar is dissolved.

Add in 2/3 cup evaporated milk and the pecans, stir well.

Pour into jars.

Add a tag and bow and you have made some sweet little gifts! Consider packaging with a cool ice cream scoop to make it extra special. Put instructions on the back of the tag to keep sauce refrigerated and to reheat slightly in microwave to pour over ice cream.

How long of a shelf life does this have? Can they be mailed after they are made or should I set the jars in boiling water like canning? I would be afraid of mold if not refrigerated shortly after making them.

Hello, I also was so excited to find this recipe. I know it's been asked several times, but I didn't see an answer and really would like to know if these can be water bathed To keep on the shelf for storing and gift giving. If so do you please know how long they would take To process. I appreciate your time and help. Sincerely, Mrs. Sherry Siedlecki

When I initially commented I appear to have clicked on the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox andnow every time a comment is added I receive 4 emails with the exact same comment.Is there a way you are able to remove me from that service?Thanks!

I just made this and it was delicious! I made it on the stove top because I'm not a fan of microwave cooking. I browned the pecans and then melted the butter in a medium cooker and added the ingredients as per the recipe. I will make this during the Holidays and also as gifts on special occasions. Thanks so much for posting this recipe!

I would love to find a way to can this so I could include it in make ahead gift baskets. I make 15 each year as party favors and I don't have the room in the fridge for all the baskets. If anyone knows how to do it so it doesn't need refrigeration I would love to know!!!!

To Danielle from 11/3/2010---if you go to Bisquick recipes they should have a recipe for impossible pecan pie --fantastic for those who don't care for the crusts-if you look for it and can't find it -email me at acb39470@bellsouth.net and I will look it up in my recipes-they also have one for a pumpkin pie that's good too-we use it every tear for thanksgiving

oooh....ooooooooh....man does that speak to my sweet little taste buds. It's like pecan pie (my absolute favorite) without the crust (my least favorite part of said pie). looks like some dangerous stuff (says my waist line....but we won't pay any attention to her)

Just delivered these today to my son's Enrichment/Specials teachers (PE, Music, Library, Counselor, etc...) along with an individual portion of White Fruitcake! Everyone was so impressed and so excited to get home to try the sauce! We all agreed that this would taste just as good over a slice of plain cheesecake!!!!!!! Great recipe ~ so easy to follow...I JUST LOVE THIS SITE!!!!!!!!!

This is a wonderful idea! I too am thinking of making some up for Christmas gifts. I'd love to hear how long you think it will last unopened/unrefridgerated and opened/refridgerated. I'll keep checking back!

Hi .. I probably the only one who is going to ask this, but my family can't eat any kind of nuts. I wonder if this is going to be still delish without the pecans? I guess it's going to be just regular caramel sauce. Thanks for this fantastic idea though, I will definitely make this for the teachers!

I was worried someone was going to ask about the jars. I purchased them while living in Germany. I haven't searched for them locally or online, but here are the details from the box: Made by Leifheit, 6 Marmelade - und Geleeglaser mit deckel 1/4 lt ( 6 Marmelade and Jelly Jars with Lids). They hold 1 cup.
